A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Guidelines for MPLS Load Balancing
Author(s) : D. Allan
Filename : draft-allan-mpls-loadbal-02.txt
Pages : 7
Date : 2003-3-7
RFC 3031 permits MPLS load balancing while making no specific
representations as to requirements of implementation. This has
subsequently become an issue with respect to the reliability of path
test mechanisms. Load balancing algorthms may separate path test
probes from the path of interest. This I-D proposes guidelines for
implementation of load balancing such that path test mechanisms are
not impacted.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
